Attack on Pedicabs Spreads to Chicago

That’s essentially what a handful of cities across the U.S. are telling pedicab drivers.

Onerous regulations and restrictions are cutting off pedicab owners and operators as they pursue an active lifestyle and livelihood, despite the fact that pedicabs are a proven, green transportation alternative.

In Chicago, Mayor Rahm Emanuel has said that he wants his city to become the most bike-friendly hub in the country. But his stance toward pedicabs is incredibly unfriendly, to say the least.
